6. If you configure an
Idle Timer
in the previous step, you should also configure a
bringup
filter. To do this, enter the following command:
set user name=<username> Bringup=<filter_name>
<filter_name>
is the name of the
bringup
filter. For example:
set user name=linda network Bringup=filter3
7.
Optionally, you can configure a
keepup
filter that restricts which packets restart
the idle timer. To do this, enter the following commands:
set user name=<username> Keepup=<filter_name>
<filter_name>
is the name of the keepup filter. Information on configuring
filters is given later in this Chapter. For example:
set user name=linda Keepup=filter3
8. You can also restrict connections to certain times or certain days. To do this, enter
the following command:
set user name=<username> AccessTime=<timestring>
<AccessTime>
specifies when the link will be available.
For example, if
AccessTime=tu
, the connection will remain active for 24 hours, but only on
Tuesdays. If
AccessTime=tu12:00-13:00
, then the connection is only
available between 12.00 and 13.00 hours on Tuesday.
The following example
establishes the outgoing connection for linda through the “working” week (Mon-
day through Friday) for 24 hours each day, but drops it at weekends:
set user name=linda AccessTime==wk
Note:
The optional parameters in steps 4 through 8 could be combined with the
main configuration command in step 3 if you wish.
Note:
If both a bringup filter and the AccessTime option are defined, when Access-
Time makes the link active, it also enables the bringup filter. If the filter then
detects traffic, it brings up the link. If an AccessTime option is defined, but no
filter, the link comes up immediately AccessTime triggers.
9. If the user makes the outgoing connection to a Frame Relay service, configure the
Frame Relay parameters by entering the following command:
set user name=<username> FRPort=<number> FRDLCI=<number>
•
FRPort=
is the port or range of ports assigned to the user.
• FRDLCI=
is the local Data Link Channel Identifier assigned by your service
provider.
